NOTES ON STYLE AND PRESENTATION
Submission Deadline: June 1st
The first stage of assessment has already taken place whereby the Editorial Board select only the proposals, which met the strict requirements of subject coverage and scholarly attainment. At this stage, we need to ensure that the papers that were submitted for publication in the conference volume fully comply with the style guidelines, and are also formatted in a way that allows a smooth and prompt reviewing process.
Each paper should therefore be submitted to the editors in 2 (two) versions:
– The first version should contain full details of the author, and it should be formatted according to the instructions listed below (please, see below: FORMAT OF FINAL VERSION).
– The second version should be submitted in a separate, and fully anonymised, file, containing the main text, but without the author’s name or affiliations so that the identity of the author is not disclosed to the peer reviewers (please, see below: Format of anonymised version).
FORMAT OF FINAL VERSION

FORMAT OF ANONYMISED VERSION
Alongside the obvious need to remove names and affiliations in the title within the main manuscript, further steps need to be taken in order to ensure that the submitted manuscript is ready for the peer-reviewing process. Please, make sure that you:
NOTATE BENE: All authors must make sure that their submissions are formatted according to the style guide. The responsibility for the linguistic and stylistic quality of all contributions rests solely with their authors. We strongly advise that all papers written in non-native languages be proofread and corrected by native speakers or at least by a philologist. Submissions failing to meet the deadline and/or the guidelines outlined above will, regrettably, be rejected.
Please, send both your versions to yearbook@nasledstvo.bg by June 1st (of the year the conference was held). The editors will notify the contributors of the results of the peer-review process by October 1st of the same year.
